THAT BRIDGE AGAIN.
A LIVELY SESSION OF THE OITY
COUNCIL THIS MORNING.
Leading Railroad Officials Present The
Companies Don't Want New
Contract.

The City Council met in extra ses-
sion this morning mt IL o'clock, to
take action on the matter of huiliing
a new bridge at the Water street
crossing. The Council seemed at a
loss what to do; one member would
favor a rebuilding according to the
plans furnished by the railroad COM
panies some time ago, while another
thought the roads could be compell-
ed to build their own bridge and main
tam their own crossings.
G. F. Clark seemed to want to
abide by the opinion of the City At
torney. 1t was the companies bust
ness to build the bridge, let them
build It, If not, he favored doing
what was best for the city. johnson
and Turner conceded with Clark.
Bunton hardly thought the rail-
roads had commenced work on the
new bridge, as they claimed to have
done. He thought it strange thst a
year ago they wouldn't talk of a
wooden bridge, and would only agree
to the erection of an iron one at Il
cost of 1000 to the city, while now
they offered to build a wooden one
and pay two-thisds of its cost. He
thought as the 5th day of May drew
near they grew more anxious tn be
lenient toward the city, as a certain
contract. drawn some time in the
seventies, expired on that date.
Walker wanted to do what was best
for the city and fair for the railroads
While Walker was addressing the
Council, Messrs- Magee, Stannard
and DelaplaDe, of the Wabash, and
Bates, Lakeland and Macfarlane, OF
the G. Il A, came into the room and
were introduced to the Mayor and
Council. superintendent Magee, OF
the Wabash, said the railroad had
gone to work in good faith and got
ten out timbers andirons for a bridge,
on the strength of a telegram receiv-
ed from Mayor Emmons concerning
the action of the Council in appro.
priating some 500 for bridge pur-
poses, which was given in the LEDGER
at that time. The new contract, as
drawn by Duncan, of the old Coun-
Gil, was read, but the officers of the
railroads refused to sign it. The
plans of the bridge were exhibited
and explained to the Council by Mr..
Stannard, superintendent of bridges
and buildings of the Wabash
Councilman Clark said he wa un.
decided as to what action to take
and wanted further time.
Upon motion, the Council went in,
to executive session, and finally ad,
journed until Monday night next
when the railroad officials will meet
with the Council again, and likely
agree on some kind of bridge.

A Fact.

Carthage is booming-in the columns
of the Globe-Democrat, at fifteen cents
per line.-Sedalia Democrat.
1t was good place to have about
fifteen thousand lines. It would pay
any place to do that kind of business,
even if they would put some of it in
q home paper. No place can be
written up too often.-Moberly Mon.
itOr.
Our neighbors of the Democrat are
somewhat mistaken as to the price,
however. Matter of the character
mentioned costs IS cents per line in
the Globe Democrat.

The larger part of the contents were

owing TO the distance of the fire
from the station and the poor response
